Brent Robert

Brent Robert is Steve's main competitor in the Best Buy Best Boy contest in "Cry Baby".

The family is excited when they find out that Steve is a finalist for the Best Buy Best Boy contest, but Stan is intrigued when Steve shows sympathy for three-time second-place finisher Brent, having lost a CIA contest to Jackson that involved shedding tears. When Steve is unable to help him directly, they seek professional help. Stan succeeds in defeating Jackson in a rematch, and decides to help Steve not feel sorry for his Brent by turning off his empathy as well.

Steve's sudden loss of empathy puts him in danger of losing his award, so Stan employs Jackson to spin a tale of Brent pushing his grandfather off a roof and cries for emphasis. This sways the judges, but Steve still remains cold. Desperate, Stan shoves a hot torch into Steve's chest. Steve reveals that he was faking the entire time so that Brent would actually win and it wouldn't seem like he intentionally threw the contest. Brent announces he actually enjoys pushing old people off of roofs and has no intention to stop. As a result, the judges change their minds yet again and give the award to Stan.
